Requirement

The UoC shall offer employees free-of-charge and safe transportation for employees to leave the site when it is not easily accessible. **

How Do I Interpret This Requirement?

  • In order to ensure that the employee is freely able to leave the workplace as per Indicator 3.2.11, the UoC provides reasonable transportation for employees to reach nearby communities when:

    • there is no public transportation

    • there are no easily accessible, available and affordable private transportation options.

      • the UoC should agree with employees about what easily accessible and affordable means in their context. Employee representation can support with this.

    • An example of reasonable transportation to leave the premises would be the provision of a free shuttle at the start and end of each shift to the nearby towns where employees live, in areas where there is no public transport.

    • Where the workplace is remote, transportation may only be necessary at the end of an agreed upon time period, such as a shift.

Evidence of Implementation

  • company policy about transport for remote sites

  • transport logs / schedules

  • vehicle maintenance logs

  • third party transport contracts.

Auditors Should Confirm

  • whether there are public transport options to the site;

  • how employees travel to and from the work site;

  • available vehicles for transport appear safe and sufficient;

  • there are no transport fees in wage records.
